What do I need on my final exam?

Enter what you've scored so far and how much of the module it's worth, and see the mark you need on everything that's left.

Your average on the coursework or tests already marked.
For coursework worth 40% and an exam worth 60%, enter 40.

How it's worked out

Your module mark is the weighted average of every assessment. If you have 64% on coursework worth 40%, that's already 25.6 of your 100 marks. To finish on 70% you need another 44.4 from the exam's 60, which is 74%.

The formula is: needed = (target × 100 − mark so far × weight so far) ÷ weight remaining.

Questions

What if my module has several assessments left?

Enter the weighted average of what's been marked and its combined weight. The result is the average you need across everything that's left.

Does this work for GCSE and A-Level?

It works for any assessment made up of weighted parts. GCSE and A-Level grades are set by boundaries that change each year, so use the percentage as a guide.
